Production Note - Limited Series
Production Type: Limited Series
Long Way Up is a standalone Limited Series that concluded its 11-episode run in November 2020. This production serves as the third major installment in a travelogue trilogy featuring Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman, focusing on a specific 13,000-mile journey from the tip of South America to Los Angeles. Unlike ongoing reality shows, the series was structured around the finite timeline of the expedition itself, utilizing electric Harley-Davidson LiveWire motorcycles and Rivian support trucks to highlight sustainable travel technology over a 100-day period.
The narrative arc was designed to conclude once the participants reached their final destination in California, fulfilling the predetermined objective of the trip. Because the series captures a specific historical event and a singular geographic traversal, there is no narrative framework for a continuation within this specific title. The production team treated the project as a complete documentary record of the trek, ensuring that the story reached a definitive resolution upon the arrival of the riders at their goal.
